They only shoot at nationalists

They are bombing us; peaceful citizens and children are dying,"
he says. But his relatives in Russia, who live a thousand
kilometers from the front lines, refuse to believe him. "There
is no war. ”, answers the voice of an old woman. The man gets
angry. "How do you know? I'm here!" he yells. "We have a
television," he hears himself in response. It is no coincidence
that the Russian government forbids the use of the word "war."
It indicates a situation that cannot be perceived in a neutral
way, unlike a “special military operation”, which is perceived
as the continuation of a complex government policy and does not
require a personal attitude towards it from a citizen.
Government propaganda gives people a kind of saving grace by
allowing them not to accept reality.
When art is offered as war propaganda, history becomes a show.
The disasters of war It is hard to imagine that an artist who
has experienced war first-hand could produce pro-war propaganda,
and it was precisely at the time when artists began drawing on
their personal experience that a monumental moral shift occurred

of war. war. Francisco de Goya created his
spectacular and highly political series of 82 prints The
Disasters of War (1810-1820) after visiting the battlefields

The images of the many forms of suffering portrayed by Goya
captivated the observer; disturbed, provoked feelings of
indignation. The artist wrote emotional captions under each
image, such as "You can't look at it"; "This is bad"; "This is
worse"; "This is the worst!" The captions and images seem to be
in dialogue with each other and with the observer. They seem to
ask: are we going to allow this to continue? Because he makes us
examine our assumptions in this way, Goya is considered the
first true modernist (although he is a pre-modernist). Few works
of art have preserved such freshness over time; but then again,
the atrocities of war never go out of style.
